Robert Burrell Donkin updated JAMES-700:
----------------------------------------

    Attachment: james-imap-runtime-catch.patch

This is the effective patch I'm running on my local James fork. This 
corresponds to the no-reset version. This has made a big difference to my local 
stability: before, James IMAP was effectively unusable for my data set. 

However, I agree that it isn't the way forward. It does seem like the right 
place for whatever solution is adopted.

Configurability is probably good. Perhaps introduce a configurable exception 
handling strategy implementation executed here. This design would make it 
easier for you to manage patches from my local fork.

> I think that whenever a exception is thrown when processing an IMAP command 
> the socket connection is reset. This behaviour seems little less polite than 
> it needs to be. IMAP is stateless and IMHO errors should be returned within 
> the band.
